Pros

The money was good. Full pension and company-paid benefits.

Cons

If you work as a road driver for ABF, you may as well forget about life outside their trucks. Treat your existence outside your job as a rumor. Oh, and don't get injured. They'll act like they never met you.

Pros

Nothing to say positive . I like green trucks. I like the old looking website from the 1980s.

Cons

They have no to little training and some weird folks from the back ages running sales . Very hard to sell their value as they are shrinking in Bay area and on west, pay is also a joke.
